No dig : nurture your soil to grow better vegetables with less effort / by Dowding, Charles,author.(CARDINAL)556531; Buckley, Jonathan,photgrapher.(CARDINAL)420852;
Includes bibliographical references and index.It all begins with the soil -- Getting started -- The principles of growing vegetables -- Vegetable and herb directory."Stop digging and start to truly understand the needs of your soil for bumper harvests of healthier crops. Charles Dowding has spent a lifetime perfecting his no dig sysem of growing. At its core is an awareness that soil vitality is a dynamic process involving a web of organisms which we can easily feed and support, enabling our plants to grow strong and healthy, in a weed-free environment. With clear, step-by-step instructions on how to set up a no dig plot and detailed cultivation advice for more than 80 crops, this book will revolutionize the way you grow."--Back cover
